Scientists test repurposed drug in desperate fight against fatal childhood brain cancer
NCT ID NCT07039760
Summary
This early study aims to see if a drug called asciminib, already approved for leukemia, can get into brain tumors in high enough amounts to potentially treat them. It will involve about 12 young patients (ages 6-25) whose brain tumors have come back. Researchers will test asciminib alone and combined with sildenafil to see which helps the drug reach the tumor better.
